There are several possible causes for discoloration and irritation on the glans penis. Some potential causes include: post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation: this refers to the darkening of the skin after an inflammatory or traumatic event, such as an infection or injury. Fungal or yeast infection: infections such as candidiasis or balanitis can cause discoloration and irritation. These conditions may require antifungal medication for treatment. Sexually transmitted infections (stis): certain stis, such as genital herpes or syphilis, can cause discoloration and irritation. It's important to get tested for stis and receive appropriate treatment if necessary. Lichen sclerosus: this is a chronic skin condition that can affect the genitals and cause white patches or spots, itching, and discomfort. Other dermatological conditions: skin conditions like vitiligo or psoriasis can also affect the genital area and lead to discoloration and irritation.
